Absolute banger - get this on the car stereo on the way to airport -
Edited one year agoTotal cheeseball track (even back when it came out!), but I've always been a fan of the "Holiday Hip Hop Instrumental". Take away the awful vocals and you have a pretty decent instrumental...and plus it has some really cool extra drum sections that aren't in the vocal versions. Interestingly enough I first heard it back in the 80s when it was being used as background music on a TV weather channel where I grew up, and the extra drum sections intrigued me. It wasn't until years later when I stumbled across a used copy of the 12" that I figured out where they got that version from.
I'd love to use it in a mash-up someday, or even hear how the vocals from Madonna's original sound overtop. -
Gotta say everyone seems to be missing the amazing b side from the legend Ben liebrand..... Whimsical touch is quality electro

If you are looking for a comedy rap this is the song. Using Madonnas holiday as an instrumental and with their catchy tune. -

En una entrevista reciente Felix Buguet ha contado que las primeras 70.000 copias que se vendieron de este vinilo fueron mal prensadas por la fábrica cuyo fallo es que el sonido era horrible pero que apenas les retornaron a Blanco y Negro copias para cambiar

The cassette single was only released in Canada and Philippines, as noted by discogs submissions in 2020!
I guess that makes it a rare piece and as someone else quoted ' a true collectors gem'.
No matter how many bad reviews, the fact remains that 'Holiday Rap' packed the dancefloors in Canada and peaked the charts in the summer of 1986 in many other countries!
An extremely fun rap track that (surprisingly) came out from a Dutch duo - and white at that! Which is quite possibly why (lol) most of the bad reviews came from the UK and US.

"..AND WE TAKE A LITTLE PIECE OF AMSTERDAM..."
I caught 'this' on TOTP's one night.
This is what had me running from a dance-floor back then ?
Oh the piece of....
It's simple they were both stoned and thought this was A.....mazing ?
"ring rang dong for a hol-ee-day" in THAT accent & they thought 'wow' when they heard it ??
Electrica Salsa [Baa Baa Baa Baa !] is equally as funny/cool/bollox depending on where in Europe you come from too !
